VirtueRed Usage Guide
Welcome to VirtueRed, VirtueAI's red teaming platform for Large Language Models (LLMs). This guide provides step-by-step instructions to help you set up your environment, connect to the platform, and start assessing your models.
Quick Start
- Configure your AI Application - Navigate to AI Applications → New Application
- Run a Scan - Go to Scans → New Scan and select your configured application
- View Results - Monitor progress and download detailed reports
AI Application Configuration
Before running scans, you need to configure the AI applications you want to test. VirtueRed provides a unified interface under AI Applications → New Application that supports:
- Model Providers - Pre-configured integrations with popular AI model APIs
- Custom Applications - Flexible adapters for custom endpoints or Python scripts
Configuration Workflow
The configuration wizard guides you through the setup process. The number of steps varies by provider type:
| Step | Description |
|---|---|
| Provider Type | Select a model provider or custom application type |
| Basic Configuration | Enter application name, API credentials, and model settings |
| Advanced Settings | Configure rate limit and optional parameters (model providers only) |
| Test Response | Verify your configuration works correctly (optional) |
| Review & Submit | Review all settings and create the application |
Application Validation
After you create an application, VirtueRed automatically validates your configuration in the background. The validation status determines whether the application can be used for scans:
| Status | Description |
|---|---|
| Verified | Application passed validation and is ready to use for scans |
| Validating | Validation is currently in progress |
| Pending | Application is queued for validation |
| Failed | Application failed validation and needs to be reconfigured |
Note: Only applications with Verified status can be selected when starting a new scan.
Editing Applications
If an application fails validation or you need to update its configuration, you can edit it directly from the AI Applications page:
- Click on the application card to open the Edit Application dialog
- Update the configuration (credentials, model settings, or template file)
- Click Save Changes to submit the updated configuration
- The application will be re-validated automatically

Custom Tests
VirtueRed enables organizations to create tailored red-teaming tests by uploading seed datasets and defining custom risk subcategories. This feature is designed for internal safety evaluations, industry-specific benchmarking, and extending test coverage with organization-specific risks.
Custom Tests allow you to:
- Upload seed datasets – Provide your own test prompts with associated risk subcategories
- Define custom risk subcategories – Specify subcategory descriptions through the UI or within your uploaded file
- Expand your dataset automatically – Leverage VirtueRed's data generation algorithm to create a more comprehensive and diverse test set
- Manage and reuse tests – Edit, delete, or reuse custom tests across multiple scans
Once created, your custom tests appear alongside the built-in test suites when starting a new scan. Navigate to: Scans → New Scan → Select Available Tests → Custom Tests
Upload Process
- Navigate to Custom Tests → Upload Test
- Enter a Test Name (letters, numbers, spaces, hyphens, underscores, parentheses, and dots are allowed)
- Upload your JSON file (max 10 MB,
.jsonformat only) - (Optional) Define Risk Subcategories & Definitions if not included in the file
- Click Upload Test to initiate the upload
The system will automatically validate your dataset and begin the expansion process, which typically completes in 1–2 minutes.
Dataset Template
Your JSON file must follow this structure:
- JSON

Attack Algorithms
VirtueRed implements a comprehensive suite of jailbreak attack algorithms to test AI model safety. For detailed documentation on each algorithm, see the Attack Algorithms Overview.
| Algorithm | Type | Description |
|---|---|---|
| DarkCite | Social Engineering | Authority citation-driven technique that exploits models' bias toward authoritative sources by including fabricated academic citations and expert references. |
| Bijection Learning | Encoding-Based | Teaches models a custom cipher language through few-shot examples, then submits encoded harmful prompts that bypass safety filters. |
| Crescendo Attack | Iterative | Multi-turn strategy that progressively escalates from benign to harmful requests, using adaptive backtracking when refusals occur. |
| Flip Attack | Obfuscation | Exploits autoregressive architecture by flipping text (words, characters, sentences) to create left-side noise that evades safety detection. |
| Language Game | Encoding-Based | Encodes harmful prompts using 15+ transformation techniques (leet speak, pig latin, atbash cipher, etc.) to bypass pattern-based filters. |
| BoN Attack | Augmentation | Best-of-N sampling strategy that generates thousands of prompt variations (typos, capitalization, character substitution) to find safety-bypassing versions. |
| Humor Attack | Social Engineering | Wraps harmful requests in playful, conspiratorial framing with fictional characters and humor elements to exploit helpfulness bias. |
| Emoji Attack | Augmentation | Replaces harmful keywords with semantically equivalent emojis (💣, 🔫, 💊) to bypass text-based content filters while preserving model understanding. |
